@donho Hello. I have a question. Would you not make the Monitoring functionality to work with Windows XP also? The latest version in which Monitoring works fine on XP is 7.5.1, beyond of that version the functionality works only on Win 7 and above . . . (I also read something like the Monitoring functionality was dropped for WinXP) I’m using WinXP, and I’m stuck to version 7.5.1 (I have an old laptop). Would you not make it to work with XP for the upcoming versions also?

Ever since updating to Notepad++ 7.5.6 (I skipped 7.5.4/7.5.5) every now and then startup takes a very long time (~5-10 seconds). Usually it’s fast (<1s). It does not depend on wether Notepad++ was launched before or not, it just happens statistically every now and then when launching.

Is anybody else experiencing htis behavior and was any code touched since 7.5.3 that could cause such a performance regression?

I must say, the old style Open dialog box sucks. It’s so much better when you can use the address bar in the dialog box to browser around, and not that select style.
Also having to return one directory at a time instead of clicking on the one you want is not cool.
